    Exactly my point you can't confuse a V6 with a L4 they look so different.

    As for the badge you have in the photo, It is NOT factory Toyota badging on the V6 emblem. You can buy that exact same badge at Walmart. Previous owner probably put it there.

    Could be. Dumb people are dumb. Everyone knows it takes stickers, not badges to add hp.

    I did not think the 2.7 4 cylinder came on the 6 lugers with the v6 ride hight and in the DCSB. i know they make/made a DCSB that had the 2.7 4 cylinder and it sits a lot lower than the v6.

    It doesn't, as far as i know they make a single cab 6-lug 4 cylinder, not a double cab. Unless they have different configurations in Puerto Rico then someone needs to take a pic of the engine.

    They make 6 lug double cabs.....they only come in prerunner but they do exist. There are a few threads on them.

    The 4cy DC comes in 5 and 6 lug.

    When I was looking to buy my Taco I wanted a manual 6Log with the L4 engine and didn't find one. I ended up with the litter 5Lug and maybe if I waited a litter longer I might find one but I love My litter Taco Just wish it have the 6Lug and the Leaf spring on top of the diff.

    As soon as I Bump to my friend I'll Take picture of the engine.

    Yep, I typed before I finished reading the thread. Actually, when I started looking for a Tacoma about 8 months ago, the Toyota website indicated that you couldn't get a 4 cyl. Prerunner. It wasn't until I went to the dealer website to look at inventory did I realize it was possible. The rest, as they say, is history.
